Slide-mounted adult female mostly oval, 2.4 (2.4 - 3.2) mm long and 1.6 (1.6 - 2.9) mm wide; derm membranous; segmentation relatively well-developed. Anal lobes distinct but not prominent, dorsal and ventral surfaces of each lobe with weakly sclerotised area, ventral surface with long apical seta, 192 - 194 (178 - 194) µm long and with well-developed and narrow anal lobe bar; anal lobe bar fairly conspicuous, but occasionally fainted and rarely difficult to see. Antenna 368 - 372 (322 - 407) µm long, with 7 (7 - 8) segments and many flagellate setae; subapical segment with one fleshy seta and apical segment with 4 (3 - 4) fleshy setae. Legs relatively short and stout, but well-developed, with many flagellate setae; hind trochanter + femur 319 - 332 (300 - 356) µm long, hind tibia + tarsus 243 - 250 (239 - 278) µm long; claw 38 - 43 (38 - 46) µm long. Ratio of lengths of hind tibia + tarsus: trochanter + femur 0.73 - 0.78 (0.73 - 0.82); ratio of lengths of hind tibia to tarsus 1.87 - 2.07 (1.60 - 2.13). Paired tarsal digitules present, subequal in length to the minutely knobbed claw digitules. Hind legs with numerous translucent pores present on both dorsal and ventral surface of coxae. Labium ca. 280 (220 - 285) µm long, slightly longer than clypeus. Circulus present between abdominal segments III and IV, 85 (50 - 100) µm long and 215 (140 - 235) µm wide. Ostioles present, each with inner edges of lips not sclerotised; anterior ostioles each with a total for both lips of 106 - 118 (46 - 118) trilocular pores and 19 - 21 (16 - 25) setae; each posterior ostiole with a total for both lips of 105 - 118 (64 - 122) trilocular pores and 18 - 23 (16 - 24) setae. Anal ring 108 (90 - 108) µm wide, situated ca. half the length from apex of abdomen to end of posterior abdominal segments, with two rows of cells, bearing six setae (Fig. 3. AR); each seta 83 - 110 (83 - 118) µm long. Cerarii numbering 5 (3 - 6) pairs, all cerarii situated on posterior abdominal segments. Anal lobe cerarii (C 18) each situated on sclerotised cuticle, containing 2 (1 - 4) conical setae, each seta 15 - 20 (15 - 28) µm long and ca. 4 - 6 µm wide at base; 12 - 16 (11 - 20) auxiliary setae and a concentration of trilocular pores. Penultimate cerarii (C 17) each situated on weakly sclerotised cuticle, containing 2 - 4 (1 - 6) conical setae and many auxiliary setae. Cerarii situated further forward generally each with 0 - 4 conical setae and at least one cerarii contain more than three conical setae and many auxiliary setae. Dorsum. Setae slender, relatively long and flagellate, each 21 - 68 (14 - 68) µm long, longest setae present on medial area of posterior abdominal segments, densely present and covering almost entire body surface. Trilocular pores ca. 3 - 4 µm wide, evenly distributed. Oral rim ducts and oral collar tubular ducts absent. Discoidal pores slightly smaller than trilocular pores, sparsely distributed on body surface. Venter. Ventral derm with slender flagellate setae, each 31 - 123 (15 - 123) µm long, longest on medial area of posterior abdominal segments. Multilocular disc pores, each 7 - 9 (6 - 9) µm wide, mostly present in medial area of abdominal segments VI-IX. Trilocular pores ca. 3 - 4 µm wide, evenly distributed. Oral rim ducts absent. Oral collar tubular ducts present, of one size, each with outer ductule 2 - 4 µm in diameter (slightly smaller than that of a trilocular pore) forming an irregular submarginal band on posterior abdominal segments and forming transverse rows on medial area of abdominal segments VI-IX. Discoidal pores slightly smaller than trilocular pores, sparsely present on body surface.	en	Tanaka, Hirotaka, Suetsugu, Kenji, Kamitani, Satoshi (2021): A parasitic insect on a parasitic plant: a new species of the genus Formicoccus Takahashi (Hemiptera, Coccomorpha, Pseudococcidae) from Ishigaki Island, Japan.

308FFFCF1AB65C5FB57BE688B4F0CE84.taxon	biology_ecology	Biology. Balanophora fungosa is characterized by unusual mushroom-shaped inflorescences that emerge above the ground and warty tubers that are attached to their host plants (Hansen 1972). Specimens of Formicoccus yoshinoi were found in aggregations on the tuber of this species. Given that (i) no other plants associated with F. yoshinoi Tanaka, sp. nov. were found during the survey and (ii) B. fungosa individuals infected by F. yoshinoi Tanaka, sp. nov. were found at two independent sites, this species might be a specialist on Balanophora species. It is worth investigating whether the species feeds on other plant species.	en	Tanaka, Hirotaka, Suetsugu, Kenji, Kamitani, Satoshi (2021): A parasitic insect on a parasitic plant: a new species of the genus Formicoccus Takahashi (Hemiptera, Coccomorpha, Pseudococcidae) from Ishigaki Island, Japan.
